APRIL 5 WOMEN REPLACE MEN AS RAILROAD PORTERS (Special to The New York Age) (Special to THE NEW YORK AOK) Philadelphia, Pa. — Superintendent Greer, of the Pennsylvania Railroad Terminal at Camden, reported Saturday that the Government had requested the employment of women in the capacity of porters. Eight women have already been engaged and many more will be hired. They will receive $50 a month, and will take the places of colored men who are being used to better advantage in other branches of the ferry and railroad service. WANTED—QUALIFIED (Special to THE NEW YORK ACK) Camp Funston, Kan.—The 92d Division, National Army, is in need of soldiers who can qualify as stenographers, electricians, auto mechanics, machinists, pharmacists, hospital attendants, clerks, twypists, saddlers, harness-makers, bakers, horseshoers, etc. Through the co-operation of the press we have secured a number of specially qualified men, but our needs as yet have not been fully supplied. Doubtless there are many Negro registrants who are qualified to meet the requirements of the Division, who will be called sooner or later, and who are willing to enter the military service ahead of their turn on the register in order to serve. There are distinct advantages to such men of entering the Army when they are needed most. In so doing, they fit into All correspondence should be addressed to Leout, T. T. Thompson, Assistant Personnel Officer, 92d Division, Camp Funston, Kansas. HOWARD ORPHANAGE TO TEACH THE TRADES The managers of the Howard Orphanage are planning to establish an agricultural and trades school at Kings Park, L. I., according to a statement issued by L. Hollingsworth Wood, president. Mr. Wood's statement follows: "The managers of the Howard Orphanage at their recent meeting, after considering the requirements in the way of repairs and improvements which would be necessary before they could hope to obtain the consent of the State and City authorities to reopen the institution, and after considering the fact that there are outstanding obligations to creditors amounting to over $10,000 decided that it would be necessary to cut off the expense of feeding the ten horses, seventeen cows and the pig and chickens during this period in order to meet the claims of the creditors. "In planning for the future the managers thought that the great need of the colored children of New York was a proper agricultural and trade school, and that they should lay their plans to provide such a much-needed institution. "The fundamental basis for such an institution is, of course, the farm, and it was to conserve the farm and buildings and protect them from the judgments of the creditors that the sale of the live stock and second-hand farm machinery was determined upon. "The managers feel that first the debts to the creditors, including a $10,000 installment upon the mortgage on the property, must be met, and they are bending their energies to meet these claims immediately. "Meeting the carrying charges for the interest and taxes and a caretaker's salary will require the earnest co-operation of all our friends, and in the work to develop the real agricultural and industrial school which we want, we ask the co-operation of all forward-looking citizens of our great metropolis." FARMERS WILL BE EXEMPTED FARMERS WILL BE EXEMPTED To Be Relieved of Military Duty and Permitted To Return To Farms Special Assistant to Secretary of War Addresses Farmers of St. Denis, Md., and Makes Unofficial Statement that Effort will Soon be Made to Give Some Relief to Labor Shortage in Agricultural Districts. (Special to THE NEW YORK ACK.) St. DENIS, Md.—In his address to the farmers of this community Sunday, Emmett J. Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War, made the unofficial statement that in order to relieve the shortage of labor during the coming or present farming season an order will soon be issued by the proper officials in Washington granting permission for all bona fide farmers and farm hands caught in the draft and called to the various camps and cantonments to return to their farms during the coming season and so long as they are engaged in farming during the coming season will be exempted from Mr. Scott stated that along with the increased demand for the things which are produced upon the farm has unfortunately come a shortage of labor available for carrying on the work of the farms, due to the fact that a number of farmers and farm hands within draft age had been called to the colors and hundreds and thousands of them are now in camp across the seas in active military service with many yet liable to be called. The exemption of farmers from military duty during the coming season will afford some direct and immediate relief to the farmers of Baltimore county and vicinity, Mr. Scott said. Many of the colored farmers of St Denis and community are members of the Patapsoo Negro Business League and are among the thriftiest farmers in Maryland. They raise immense quantities of truck products each year as well as the more substantial products of the farm which are handled through the Baltimore markets. Accompanied by C C Fitzgerald, president of the Patapsco Business League; William H. Langley, a commission merchant of Baltimore; William L Fitzgerald of the Baltimore Business League, and J. Logan Jenkins, the well-known Baltimore caterer, Mr Scott motted out to St. Denis Sunday afternoon and was met by an immense crowd of farmers, who, accompanied by their wives, had come for ten or twelve miles in buggies, wagons, on horseback and in their automobiles to the meeting. REV. WM. MOSS IS STRICKEN AT MEETING The Rev. William M. Moss, pastor of the Concord Baptist Church of Brooklyn was taken suddenly ill while presiding at the monthly business, meeting of the church on Monday night. He was conveyed to his residence and a physician summoned. Upon a diagnosis of the case, the doctor found that the patient had suffered a severe stroke of paralysis, affecting the entire right side of body. His condition remains critical. Dr. Moss came to Brooklyn to assume the pastorate of Concord in September, 1910, and his pastorate has been marked by many progressive steps in the working of the church. The latest departure was the removal of the congregation to the larger and more modern edifice on Adelhui street. A trained nurse and members of the family are constantly at his bedside.

On Saturday of last week Camp Upton's crack colored troopers, known as the "Buffaloes," marched their way into the hearts of Father Knickerbocker's citizenry; next day they continued their successful drive by making willing captives of hundreds with dance and song. It was a complete and unconditional surrender. The cavalry given the "Buffaloes" during their two days' siege of the city was most cordial and sincere, and the warm greeting accorded them by the general public was unprecedented for its spontaneity and Liberality.

A feature of the parade was the sentiment of a stand of colors in regiment by the Union League Club. The troopers halted when they reached the reviewing stand in front of the office at Thirty-ninth street, and avenue, occupied by prominent officials and civilians. Governor Whitman, accompanied by staff, was the viewing officer. Among those in the reviewing stand as guests of the club were U. S. Senator Calder, Ennett J.

Gardiner, Police Commissioner Enright, George W. Harris, J. Van Vechten Olcott and R.A.S. Smith. The head of the regiment halted north of the clubhouse and Colonel Moss and his regimental staff officers stood in the middle of the street facing the reviewing stand. Governor Whitman, General Sherrill, General Johnson and the members of the Governor's staff left the reviewing stand and grouped themselves in the middle of the street facing the officers of the 367th. In his presentation address Governor Whitman said: "Colonel Moss, officers and men of the 367th Infantry of the National Army gentlemen of the Union League Club, and my other fellow-Americans, four times have colors been presented by this famed club to colored soldiers upon the very ground where you soldiers stand today. Four times have those colors come back to this historic spot, sometimes tattered and torn, it may be, but always honored and glorified. "On behalf of the Union League Club, I commit to your keeping the most sacred trust ever committed to map—the flag of the United States of America. I charge you by all that is sacred to defend this banner with all the strength and power that God has given you; but in doing so I feel and know already that you will never permit it to be dishonored, to shame yourselves or shame those who have given it to you today. Your country will trust you to be true to yourselves, true to the land of your birth, true to the record of those other soldiers of your race whose valorous deeds have brought glory to these Stars and Stripes. "Go forth and fight for the cause of humanity as those other colored patriots have done, but when you return from the forts, the trenches, the camps, the march, the battle line, bring the flag back without one stripe dishonored, one star obscured. "Bring it back victorious," cried the Governor. "They'll do it: hurrah for the Buffalooes," was shouted from the crowd. "May God bless you and keep you," the Governor added, "wherever your duty may call you, and bring you back to us to share with all your fellow-soldiers, white or black, who fight under this same old flag of freedom, the abundant measure of praise and pride (Continued on page five) EW YORK ROMENADE B vision 50 Cents ents may be secured at 93. Tul. Cardiffdtt 2820 Necess Make It Clear that They Will Never Agree to Any Plan to Voluntarily Set Race Off in a Prescribed Section of Baltimore. (Special to THE NEW YORK AGE.) BALTIMORE, Mo.—A conference between representative white and colored men was held in the Mayor's reception room at the City Tall on Thursday of that week, at which the whites suggested that the colored people co-operate with them in carrying out the principles of the segregation law, recently annulled by the United States Supreme Court. The colored men present were James W. Hughes, caterer and president of Y.; M. C. A.; Dr. Howard E. Young, druggist; Cornelius C. Fitzpatrick, lawyer; William H. Langley, wholesale and retail produce dealer, and Carrington L. Davis, vice-principal of the Colored High School. Following the assertion by whites that good health conditions and racial peace would be maintained by voluntary and co-operative segregation, the colored men present began to protest. They pointed out that where Negroes moved property increased in value; that the whites should cease agitating the subject and that their newspapers should hit the matter drop, and also that there been only one instance of racial friction between the high court in the hand knocked out the supreme law Finding that the colored men would not agree to the suggestion of voluntary segregation, Mayor Preston asked the newspapers not to publish anything about the meeting. At the suggestion of 'Assistant Health Commissioner Howard, those present were constituted a committee to study some plan of voluntary and co-operative segregation in residential districts. It is reported that the Negroes of Baltimore have decided to oppose any arrangement which would mean the voluntary segregation of colored citizens in Baltimore, and they intend to fight any such plan submitted by advocates of segregation.

Methodist Brotherhood Thursday evening of last week in the auditorium of Mother Zion Church rendered an excellent program in honor of its president, James A. Hopkins. In glowing termis encomiums were heaped upon Mr. Hopkins, who in the ranks of this church has given twenty-three consecutive years of service. Mr. Hopkins holds a position of trust with the New York Life Insurance Company and has been in its employ for more than twenty years. In the church he is a trustee, steward of the charity fund, class leader, president of the Brown Chapter of the Methodist Brotherhood and a member of a number of auxiliaries. He is a citizen whose life and achievements make his friends feel justly proud. The rarity of a layman receiving his flowers while he could smell them seemed to be the keynote of the occasion. T. E. Taylor, secretary of the Colored Mens Branch Y. M. C. A., warned the president "beware when all men speak well of you." Bishop Lee said that "affairs of this kind should make men live longer, work harder and die happier." The pastor, the Rev. J. W. Brown, said, among other things, that "the pulpit sees this man as a quiet, unassuming, dutiful, non-fanatic Christian worker." Always having a plan to operate. Mr. Hopkins was showered from all sides with words of praise and commendation. His class, the banner class of the church, remembered, after Mrs. Locke, after her address made him d lovely presentation. Miss O'Connor Corbin, for the Sisterhood, presented a beautiful bouquet of white and red roses set in ferns and arbor vitale. B. D. Fenderson, president of the Trustee Board and treasurer of the Brotherhood, made the presentation for the Brotherhood. Dr. York Russell, regretting his inability to attend, sent his address which was very impressively read by Morton G. Fleming, clerk clerk. It follows: Tel. 5005 Morningside. DR. YORK NUMBELL 244 West 131st Street New York, March, 20, 1918. Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:— Through th' ecourtesy of the church clerk, and at his request, I have been asked to be present at this function to-night—a function, which has as its object and purpose: The giving of a reception to Mr. James A. Hopkins. Regretting my inability to be present, I am sending a word in appreciation of the recipient. I am requested to give expression to my knowledge of Mr. Hopkins as "A Man and a Citizen." It is indeed, a source of genuine gratification to me, as I appear in the role of spokesman for one whose intimate acquaintance and personal friendship I have evidence for a period extending over nearly a score of years. James A. Hopkins. Man and citizen: "Noble and inspiring words." Citizen and Man! Words inseparable from each other. Words linked together as it were, by a sort of Gordian knot. Words bound together by the closest ties of affinity, going hand in hand, like the twin constellation of Gemini, blending in one harmonious whole—the complete man. A vigorous manhood, and a noble citizenship, present a brilliant spectacle to the observer. There is nothing which lends so sweet a charm and fascination to one's fellows, as a manly manhood. And, in these times of destructive criticism and pernicious fear, than that which is presented here tonight at Mother Zion.—A man in the self esteem of his co-laborera. "Having centered about him, his pastor, the pupils of the class he instructs and directs, all agreed and at one, that Mr. Hopkins observes and merits this honor, which is his tonight. My tribute, simple and modest as it is, expresses the high opinion of Mr. Hopkins when I assert, that as I know him: He is a man, manly, dignified, and erect. In my dealings with him, he has been conscientious and above reproach. As a manly and devoted Churchman, he has stood as it were, on the Hill of Zion; fighting and struggling for the good and welfare of the church to which he is devoted. I have seen him enthusiastically soliciting funds for the support of Mother Zion, regardless of the menace to his health after a week of hard toll, and yet striving to be honourable the Sabbath Day, yet bonious. Dignified always, and never obsequious. This, Mr. Chalman, is my tribute, humble as it is. It is the unadulterated truth. Mr. Hopkins as a loyal, law-abiding and decent citizen, needs no words of mine in attestation. I rejoice in conclusion to believe Mr. Chairman and friends, that a loftier, yea, a pobber and a grander by far, citizenship awaits Mr. James R. Hopkins, for faithful and devoted service in his home and in the Church—a citizenship in a city not made with hands; in another Zion, far exalted above your own Mother Zion; to which I hope, when it shall be night with Mr. Hopkins, reverberant from his manly and conscientious heart, we, his admirers and friends, will hear his utterance, that: "Beautiful for situation is Zion, The joy of the whole earth." Mr. Hopkins responded as best he could; for he seemed to have been passing through a hard strain, after assuring heartfelt appreciation, he advised the young men to make this gathering an incentive to prompt them on to higher and nobler achievements. R. W. Payne and his masterly manner in coudering the program. After the exercles all partook of a humorous repast in the lecture room. The Age is in receipt of a communication from Major Monson Morris of the 15th New York Infantry, somewhere in France, stating that a reward of $50 each would be paid for the apprehension of thirteen deserters of the regiment, the amount to be paid upon each being turned over to Governor's Island.

(Continued from First Page) which your country will then feel for you." Col. Moss Pleads for. Square Deal. "Your Excellency, gentlemen of the Union League Club, and fellow-American citizens, in accepting this stand of colors I wish to say on behalf of the 367th Regiment of Infantry which it is my pleasant duty to command, that we prize this banner more than we can express. But we prize even more the spirit which actuated the givers. Not only "BUFFALOES" does the presentation indicate the delicate respect these givers, feel for our colored soldiers, but it also exemplifies the friendship this club has always felt for the soldier and patriot who sprang from slavery—a friendship based on the principle of a square deal for all men. "That the colored men of this country will protect and honor this flag by night and day, throughout long marches, at play or in a clutch with death itself, is something that goes without saying, and let me say to you today that when this war is all over there is going to be another presentation of colors here beside this clubhouse. "Mark you well what I say to you in this presence today, for I am an officer with eighteen years' experience with colored soldiers, having commanded them in two campaigns; these men are going to present you men in the Union League Club with colors on their return from France. The colors they will present you we want you to hang upon your walls, where they can tell with silent eloquence, in all the years to come a story of valor and unutterable patriotism to which all Americans, including our 12,000,000 of black citizens, can listen with a thrill of pride and satisfaction. "And now I take with my own hands this priceless banner and I place it in the hands of our color bearers beside our individual regimental colors which we are going to take 'over there.'" One of the telling points of Colonel Moss' remarka was that his men were going to Europe to fight for democracy, and that, when they returned to their mother country they expected to find true democracy here. When Colonel Moss had concluded his speech of acceptance the regiment began to sing "The Star Spangled Banner," after which "Over There," to quote the daily papers, "was sung as never before in New York." Then the "Buffaloes" proceeded on their march to Harlem, receiving a warm welcome from large crowds along the line of march. But it was in Harlem in the colored section, where Colonel Moss' men were the recipients of the most enthusiastic welcome. The sidewalks were packed and jammed as never before, and it seemed as if everyone of the 100,000 colored residents were out to give the "Buffaloes" the glad hand. The plaudits of onlookers on Fifth avenue were mild compared with the demonstrations along Lenox and Seventh avenues. Harlem was in holiday attire and Harlemites in holiday mood to show that they were with the SINGING AFTER PRESENTATION Underwood & Underwood, N. Y. Camp Upton boys first, last and all the time, which was done with zest and animation. Mayor Hylan an Interested Onlooker. Seventh avenue was not to be outdone by lower Fifth ... enue in the matter of reviewing stands. At 138th street three hundred white and colored citizens, headed by Mayor Hylan, saw the 367th pass from a point of vantage, and at 139th street Colonel Moss and staff saluted well known colored men and women who looked on from the bluff overlooking Seventh avenue which is a part of the spacious grounds of the Libya. Gov. Whitman and staff viewed the parade a second time at 138th street and Seventh avenue. Mayor Hylan appeared to keenly enjoy his visit to Harlem and applauded the "Buffaloes" as they passed without stint. The Police Band played tuneful selections up to the arrival of the soldiers. While marching up Fifth avenue the "Buffaloes" walked erect, looking neither to the left nor right. All eyes were straight ahead and every chest expanded. The ever genial Lieutenant Cooper, who has been in the army for twenty years or more, looked as though he would burst he extended, his chest half an inch more. But when the regiment reached Harlem there was less military rigidity. The soldiers, when called by their Christian names, would turn their heads and smile to acquaintances accosting them, in familiar fashion, and there was a general disposition toward relaxation. In Harlem the 367 Infantry Band and the 15th Battalion Band, N. Y. Guard, put aside their march music and saturated the air with ragtime, much to the delight of the thousands of reviewers, who thoroughly enjoyed the selections. At 125th street and Seventh avenue the parade disbanded after the regiment had marched more than seven miles—a thousands and thousands of white march which will be historic in the animals of New York's history. As the result of the fine showing made by the 367th Infantry in Saturday's parade a more wholesome sentiment and higher esteem have been crystallized in the largest city of the Western world for the Negro as a man and a soldier. Not even the most blind and prejudiced white American could gather from Saturday's parade an lot of proof to be used in argument that the Negro is unfit to be among officers and cannot successfully lead his own. Opinion is not always based on facts. For this reason we have in this country ON OF COLORS. Americans who have set opinions about their fellow colored Americans which are contrary to fact, a national tendency which helps to aggravate instead of aniliorate the so-called race problem. After viewing Saturday's parade and after attending Sunday's entertainment, I feel confident hundreds of white Americans went about their business with a better mind and a bigger heart, a broader vision, a growing appreciation of their fellow Americans, and a clearer understanding of the meaning of the term "true democracy." I have read of Buffalo stampedes in the Wild and Woody West. New York was given its first taste of what a "Buffalo" stampede really is last Saturday and Sunday—a stampede not soon to be forgotten.

WALTON) COLORED America's versatility was strikingly shown at the Manhattan Opera on Sunday at the regimental environment of the 367th Infantry brigade the "Buffaloes" sang and danced like professionals, furnish- ing one of the most novel and valuable benefit performances of the season. Women were times during the entertainment when it was difficult to obtain that the singer or dancer was not engaged daily in earning the hardihood on the stage instead of undergoing intensive training for the battle front; for at no time did the performance smack of the anatomy. However, it must not be assumed that the Negro is an unusual person, who, if given an opportunity, can do many things far above the level of mediocrity. A more picturesque stage setting could not have been shown than in Part 2, when one thousand black chad singers were seen grouped about the spacious stage of the Manhattan Opera House in a tablinum entitled "Somewhere in France." During the second part of the program the soldiers effectively murdered in regimental chorus "Roll Jordan Roll," "Mister Zip, Zip, Zip," "Old Black Joe," and other familiar songs, which were sung as only Negroes can. There was Corporal Thaddeus Drayton, up to last October a talented vandeville performer, who did some fancy dance steps to the symphonic music of the Regimental Band and Harmonica Orchestra. Corporal Drayton worked with enthusiasm in his swell dress suit and patent leather spats, and he seemed to be delighted to be once more before the footlights. Corporal Walter B. Williams was the principal soloist, while his comrades in arms were on the stage, and his tenor voice has not lost any of its sweetness since donning the uniform of Uncle Sam. His association, if anything, has improved since he was last heard in hiatum. Corporal Lester Miller, another Matrens boy, has made himself a one-stringed instrument, a near primitive of the violin, from which he gets very sweet music. Whether playing "The Rosary" or a rag, the bone-made instrument is his willing subject and the harmony he gets from one string is remarkable. Although Miss Abbie Mitchell has for the past two years devoted most of her time to dramatic work, she continues to sing as the Abbie of old; in fact, her work in stock tunes her to give a more accurate interpretation of her songs, which she does without overacting. In the first part Miss Mitchell artistically sang "Exhortation" and "Marminy" with Will Marion Cook at the piano. J. Turner Layton was accompanist in her other numbers. Barney Clark, who before becoming a draftee, was a female impersonator on the stage, and Sergeant Randall, another erstwhile civillian, did a pleasing turn, Clark winning applause with his dancing and foot-work in general. When, in response to encores, the soldier-female impersonator pulled off his wig and appeared in his soldier's coat, he handed many in the audience a big surprise. Perhaps the best-liked non-commissioned man in the 367th Infantry in Sergeant George E. Battle, who has aroused more enthusiasm among the "Buffaloes" for singing than any other person. He, too, has taken to soldiering after follo- bering the life of a performer. Sunday, Sergeant Battle did a turn at the piano, singing comedy songs, which went big with the white people in the audience in particular. After the 367th Infantry Band, E. E. Thompson; bandmaster, had opened the program with an inspiring overture, the 367th Infantry Octet, composed of Lieut. P. I. Lancaster, Lieut. James E. Scott, Lieut. Journee White, Lieut. Lorenno C. White, Lieut. Clarence Jones, Lieut. Hairy Bouden, Sergt. George E. Battle and Private S. E. Phillips, rendered selected songs which set the bill to going in lively fashion. Smith and Brown, adopted "Buffaloes," followed and made one of the biggest hits of the evening. Appearing in street clothes, the comedians did their regular act, consisting of funny dialogue and songs which went over big. Smith and Brown are good singers and have an act which should land them on some responsible vaudeville circuit. The Enlisted Men's Quartet composed of Private Thomas R. Hall, Corp. Walter B. Williams, Sergt. George H. Lewis and Private S. E. Phillips, pleased in selected songs. The Manhattan Opera House, whose seating capacity is only exceeded by the Hippodrome, was filled at both afternoon and evening performances by fashionable audiences. In the evening box parties were given by millionaires and wellknown citizens. One of the boxes was occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas F. Ryan and party. TO REPRODUCE "FAUST" AT LAFAYETTE "Faust" will be the attraction at the Lafayette again next week, Easter week. No stronger production could be selected than this masterpiece for the occasion, and especially in the form given by the Lafayette Players. In the two years of the stock season no performance has had so many requests for a repeat as "Faust." Letters and orders for seats have come from as far as Philadelphia and Atlantic City, not to mention nearby cities and towns. It may be of interest to the patrons and friends of the Lafayette Players to know that never during the week of any production given at this theatre have there been so many representatives of the theatres and white artists as during the engagement of "Faust." The management states that offers have been made by the best managers to have the Lafayette Players appear in Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, St. Louis; Cincinnati and Chicago. TO GIVE BENEFIT AND DANCE ON APRIL 12 A monster vaudeville benefit and dance will be given by the Auditorium Funds Clubs Friday evening, April 12, at Tally Revoir Hall, 1221 Bedford avenue, near Fulton, Brooklyn, for the benefit of the regimental fund of the 367th Infantry.

The best young singer on the year's tour is to receive a $50 musical scholarship. Miss Dainy Young won the medal in Dallas. HAVE MANY FEATURES Indications are that the seventh annual monster athletic meet and Easter promemade of the Smart Set Athletic Club on Friday evening, April 5, at the Thirteenth Regiment Armory, Sumner and Putnam, Brooklyn, will be a record-breaker from a standpoint of both attendance and brilliancy. An added feature will be the grand military review at which Col. James A. Moss of the 36th Infantry will be chief reviewer when the 13th Coast Artillery goes through maneuvers for a brief space of time. Among the entries on the athletic program attracting more than ordinary attention will be interbattalion officers' relay, open only to the officers of the 36th Infantry and a match relay between St. Christopher, Salem-Crescent and Alpha. Members of the "Buffalo" regiment will show civilians what they know about grenade throwing, bayonet combat and machine-gun drill. Dancing is advertised to start at 10 o'clock, music to be furnished by the 36th Regiment Band and the 13th Coast Artillery Band.

It was unfortunate that in taking these properties over, our agency management, the Philip A. Payton, Jr., Company, found it necessary to request a few tenants to move. This is usually the case in change of ownership and adjustment of rental conditions. Ours was no exception, with the result that we are now able to offer you a few choice apartments. It is our aim, and we hope to have the hearty co-operation of each and every one of our tenants to make these apartments the best from the standpoint of the character of occupancy as well as construction, set aside for the tenantry of Colored families, in the world: With that thought in mind, we have placed the management of these properties in the hands of Philip A. Payton, Jr., Company. This Company has moved its entire efficient force to 127 W. 141st Street, with offices right on the premises, and under their management we can assure the public a service that will equal any in New York City. These six large, modern De Luxe elevator apartment houses, containing 306 apartments, divided into suites of 3-4-5 and 6 rooms, were constructed at a cost of One Million and a Half Dollars.

The Farmers' Institute of Chatham County was organized three years ago by Prof. E. A. Williams, district agent of Georgia. On the second Monday of each month the regular meeting is held at the Georgia State College to discuss different problems of interest along agricultural lines, and how to better their communities at large.

PLANTING SCHOOL GARDENS NEAR SAVANNAH Savannah, Ga.—The colored students throughout Chatham country are planting school gardens.

It has a real school farm, with the boys and girls eager to do their "bit" in saving foodstuffs. A pig club has been organized by Prof. E. A. Williams, district agent; also a canning club among the girls, by Miss Juanita Conyers, home demonstration agent. The girls are to be taught by Miss Conyers how to make sour krout with the cabbages now growing at the school. These plants were given by C. B. Gibson, superintendent of the Board of Education, last October. Edgar F. Jones, one of the teachers recently appointed at the Culver Junior High School last week, began the garden work with the students of the High School department. The entire garden has been planted with all varieties of seeds. Prof. J. W. Hubert, principal of Culver, already has the ground prepared to plant corn, as the boys of the corn club did last year.

WANTED—Good money made. We want agents in every city and village to sell The Star Hair Grower. This is a wonderful preparation. Can be used with or without straightening irons. Sells for 35 cents per box—one 38c box will prove its value. Any person that will use a 38c box will be convinced. No matter what has failed to grow the hair, just give The Star Hair Grower a trial and be convinced. Send 38c for full size box. If you wish to be an agent, send $1.00 and we will send you a full supply that you can begin work with at once, also agent's terms. Send all money or money order to THE STAR HAIR GROWER MGR. P. O. Box 812 Greensboro, N. C. Each house bears the name of a prominent Negro Character, and in organizing our Corporation to take title to these properties, we decided that the entire proposition should be known as the Payton Apartments Corporation, as a memorial to the daring sagacity, forethought and resourcefulness of Philip A. Payton, who died August 29th, 1917, just as he had accomplished this big deal. A proper idea of the magnitude of this operation can only be had by taking into consideration the fact that these six houses cover a tract of over two acres, or thirty-three full city lots. They mark the last word in high-class, fire-proof apartment house construction. Beautiful entrances, luxurious foyers and spacious courts; give these houses an air of refinement that is appealing. Every room in these houses is private and filled with beautiful gas and electrical fixtures. Hardwood trim floors and French doors with Florentine glass, add greatly, to the attractiveness of these apartments. The plumbing is of the very best, being open nickel plated, and the fixtures in both the kitchens and the baths are white porcelain. The bath rooms have tile floors and sidewalks, showers and pedestalled lavatories. Each apartment has telephone, roomy closets, special gas ranges, dumbwaiters, refrigerators connected with sewer and a metal sanitary garbage pail receptable built in the wall. We have arranged a scale of moderate rentals that should appeal to those who wish comfort and elegance without extravagance. RALEIGH N. C. Raleigh, N.
